  1. I’m absolutely sitting out on my porch with a beer and weed pen listening to “Scooter Blues” on repeat after the kid goes to bed.
  2. Don’t tell Iowa fans. They think they’re a crucial component of the Big 10’s value, and have no awareness that if we had hooked up with Ohio State and Michigan, and they had hooked up with Nebraska and Oklahoma, they would have spent the last 15 years in existential dread while we suckled at the teat of content benefactors.
  3. Leftover dogs, kraut, raw onion, pepperoncini, dijon, mustard based relish, Whataburger ketchup, Tillamook cheddar hinge, shitty low carb wrap. Deductions for permanent plating.
  4. Why is anyone still operating under the delusion that who you play sports against says anything about your school? It's probably one of the dumbest parts of the conference model.
  5. 1.0 would mean you literally had straight alcohol pumping through your veins, correct?
  6. The lesser schools in the Big 10 hate Michigan and Ohio State and have been free riding for years. Michigan and Ohio State just don't care, and never have.
  7. And if we're being really truly honest, a lot of people can safely operate equipment at .1 BAC. But holy shit, to actually say that in his position? This is a man who has repeatedly demonstrated that he gives absolutely 0 fucks what his employer thinks about anything because he knows he's untouchable. This is the definition of "beyond reproach".
  8. A whole bunch of that is skewed by one small town in north central Iowa that's put like 6 guys into the NFL. A town of like 1500.
  9. There are people who don't inspect prior to flushing?
  10. I'm pretty sure we still have the other school flags at Jack Trice, but I wasn't really paying attention the last time I was there.
  11. They don't officially join the Big 12 until August 1.
  12. I don’t think the Big 10 and SEC jettison their leeches. They just make them take a big pay cut.
  13. The latter. Not like it hasn’t been going on for years
  14. I don't think the SEC wants to expand more either, but I think that they have always felt somewhat compelled to match the Big 10. If the SEC doesn't expand, I think your situation makes sense. You would have an ACC that's clearly behind the Big 12, clearly ahead of the G5, and just creates essentially another tier in college sports.
  15. Get used to that.
  16. Josh Pate keeps hinting at ACC destruction this month. Have to imagine this goes down much like the PAC. It'll be curious to see how ND and the SEC are playing their cards here. I feel like the Big 10 has more of an internal need to grow than the SEC does, but they also always seem to feel compelled to respond. FSU has always felt more SEC to me, but the SEC has plenty of the Florida market eyeballs already.
  17. I’ve been a Petty fan for as long as I’ve known what music was, and yesterday was the first time I’d ever heard Ways To Be Wicked. Holy shit. Absolute top tier Petty. The fact that a song that good just sorta got buried is a testament to his brilliance.
  18. This is fucking fantastic. All the songs they've released ahead of this album have been fantastic. These guys really know how to craft gigantic hooks.
  19. I enjoy Margo's music a lot, but find her to be kind of pretentious. There's something that annoys me about how she calls quitting drinking the bravest thing she's ever done, but she's almost constantly posting on social media about getting stoned and taking shrooms. I think sobriety is brave as hell, but she's not even close to sober. I mean, it's definitely healthier physically, and that's cool for her, but attaching the word "brave" to it annoys me. The folks out there white knuckling through the shit show that is modern reality are brave. Putting yourself into that camp because you swapped a vice for a less unhealthy vice comes off kinda like stolen valor. But I'm just a guy pontificating on the internet, and she's absolutely a certified badass musician.

    Digging this whole album's vibe
  21. The historic cache of Michigan and Ohio State is a lot of it too.
  22. I think FSU and Clemson still bring in viewers, and like you said, they wouldn't be going this hard to break things up unless they knew they had a soft landing somewhere. IMO, if FSU and Clemson aren't moving the needle TV wise, then I don't know that any schools outside of the SEC and Big 10 (excluding ND of course) move the needle for TV.
